Thie laconic interrogative will no more as in months past start an interesting converse tion with all society people. The Mnncie Dancing Club is no more, they have given their last hop, passed out of existence happy, and without goiDg into bankrupey. The latter is a noteworthy fact and one that will long be remembered among the managers of dancing societies.

Tbe last dance was given Friday night, and what a dance to ball-goers free to those who held invitations. But club members rode in on one wheel just tbe same as in ye olden time. In the beginning tbe management promised to give to fancy dress balls the first of which was the sheet and pillow masquerade, ihe society event of the season, and the ball Friday night was the second one promised. There were not so many couples in attendance, neither was there as much talk and preparation for the latter as for the former hut it wda none the lees enjoy aide. There were but three or four non of Mnncie present, hence dignified formality was a thing unknown.

At a little later than the usual hour the orchestra commenced and the musicians were allowed little rest until supper time. No matter what dance a person was fond of he was allowed to gratify their desire to good music, and so frequently did they do so that supper was eagerly welcomed as a time of Vest. A nearly twelve they adjourned to tbe aupper at the various lesUturanls, wiiich had prepared themselves before hand. We saw some of the boys going away with a box under their arm, but this was just salt to season the supper, not a whole supper. After supper all returned to the hall and to the excellent music, danced until nearly when Nights candles are Joound day Stands tip toe on the misty mountain tops.

And lo-day the dancers whose lot is sleep is happier than most of them. Was you at the club? has bad its day aud tbe weather and corn crops will again receive their due share of the conversation. And tbe wish of the members is that another so well managed club will be on hand at the proper time. INDEPENDENT.
